eighteen	átján	zero	nul

The word sto is actually a neuter noun, tisic can be either feminine or neuter and the higher multiples of a thousand are either masculine or feminine, according to the ending (e.g. milljón is feminine, milljarður is masculine and so on). Nul is neuter.

Adjectives

Adjectives must agree with the gender, number and grammatical case of the nouns they describe. For example, the word íslenskur (Icelandic) agrees as follows:

Hokian (strong)	case	Masculine	Feminine	Neuter
singular	nom.	hoki	íslensk	íslenskt
	acc.	íslenskan	íslenska
	dat.	íslenskum	íslenskri	íslensku
	gen.	íslensks	íslenskrar	íslensks
plural	nom.	íslenskir	íslenskar	íslensk
	acc.	íslenska
	dat.	íslenskum
	gen.	íslenskra

In strong declension, for example:

Ég bý með íslenskri konu—I live with an Icelandic woman
